Pessenda, along with her husband, Jim Bovino, are in charge of an acre plot of land in Northeast Minneapolis at the corner of 22nd Ave. NE and California Street.

They planto grow just about everything you can imagine and sell it to local restaurants. They also want to be able to sell to everybody else and plan to do so if the measure gets enoughvotes to pass.

"I think if every neighborhood has a little farm, it would make a big difference in terms of people's quality of life, quality of neighborhoods, certainly cut down on people's expenses and we just get that much more independent," said Bovino.
